    Should I get a trainer or keep doing Cathe?

    I agree, if it's an option for you, do both! I started working with a trainer last year in conjunction with my Cathe workouts and I've learned so much and have had great results. You don't need to work with them 3 times a week, I did once a week sessions for six weeks and now I only make an...

    RUNNERS - looking for places to run

    Hi Elaine, I've recently started running outdoors too and thought I'd jump in here. I have some of the same concerns that you do - I've been running around my neighborhood at lunchtime and it's pretty deserted. It's hilly and quiet, beautiful though, and I worry about dogs, bears, and the...

    gym or workout videos?

    I'd try the gym out for a week or so - most gyms offer a free trial period - and see if you like it. I used to work out at home exclusively for lots of reasons, mostly b/c of my schedule, but now I do both. I agree with Trevor re: weight training. I've seen tremendous results since I started...

    How many calories should I be eating?

    Hi Andrea, I'm a member of LL too, I started a couple of months ago. That does seem low, however, how much weight are you trying to lose each week? As you already know, your exercise minutes are taken into account as well as your present weight and bodyfat %. The more weight you aim to...

    Angela/Randi/Lori Check In

    Hi ladies, Glad to "see" you're doing so well! It's been a difficult week - my brother-in-law (13 y.o.) broke his ankle on Sunday night. He was discharged yesterday. Angela, I'm glad you had a good trip! Lori, sounds like your program is working! You're not doing legwork everyday...

    Hey Lori & Randi!

    Oh Lori, I hope you're feeling better by the time you read this. Take care of yourself. It doesn't sound like e-diets is working for you. Can you get your money back if you discontinue the program? This morning I took an awesome kickboxing class - we did circuits with jump ropes, spinning...

    Hey Lori & Randi!

    Congrats on upping your weight! Lately I've found that if I wait to do cardio after lower body I'm too wasted to finish. I do cardio first and it acts as a nice warm-up for the leg work. I ordered the Leanness Lifestyle book and got a free 30-day trial of their online program. I logged in...

    Hey Lori & Randi!

    Hi Ladies, No workout for me today. My son was up at 4 A.M. this morning and I went into the office today. Anyway, yesterday I did chest, back and abs and jumped rope for 45 min. I was going to stop after 30 and run for 15 min. but the thought of the treadmill made want to keep jumping...

    Hey Lori & Randi!

    I'm sorry to hear about that too Lori. I hope you're able to find a solution that works for you - insurance companies seem to get away with being very unfair at times. Today I did HSTA - what a great workout! It was so hard! I need to incorporate more Cathes into my schedule one way or the...

    Hey Lori & Randi!

    Hi guys! I've been so terrible about keeping up with our check-in. We went to court this week on a case I've been working on since I started my new job and after a really weird coincidence with the judge, wound up being adjourned for another month and a half. What a big letdown, lol! My...

    RE: Move It to Lose It June 14-20 Hi girls! I haven't actually read any of your posts yet, just wanted to check in first. I've been sick and worked out for the first time since last Saturday yesterday. I've got this cough that won't go away and just some general fatigue, etc. I did some...

    Move It To Lose It- 5/31-6/7

    Hi guys, I think I posted on the other thread about my Saturday workout and how I didn't finish it. I'm sick today which has to be the reason why I was feeling so lousy that day. No workout for me since Sat. and hopefully I'll be feeling better by tomorrow. ttyl, Randi

    Hey Angela and Lori, Lori actually started this week's thread but it's on page 3 now. I've had a crazy, busy week and now I think I may be coming down with something. We have company this weekend too. I did cardio and chest and back today and then went home. I was tired and I'm not sure...

    Move It To Lose It- 5/31-6/7

    Hi Lori, I got the Advanced High Step workout Friday but I haven't had a chance to try it yet. Did you Angela? It looks like fun. I haven't worked out since Thursday. After my killer lower body workout on Wednesday I was a little sore...but that turned into EXTREMELY sore on Friday and...

    LOL Lori, I'm sorry you feel that way about the yoga tape! It's the one from P90X, right? Maybe you could sub another yoga workout or even a thorough stretching tape for it instead. Cool It Off from SS is a good one IMO, but I don't know how it may compare to Yoga X. I haven't worked out...

    Kindergarten really has been an awesome year for us. She's grown up so much and she's learned a lot too. You must love teaching this age group. I love being around her and her friends. LOL re: your rotation! Good for you though, going with how you feel. The times I've tried to stick with...
